A Change.

With this issue the proprietary
interest of Sidney A. Foster in THE
REPUBLICAN passes to w. II. Nc
Clure, who has been connected with
the paper since its establishment in
December, 1855. AS many of our
readers know, the paper was located
at the solicitation of large
portion of the citizens of the
county, who gave assurance of
liberal assistance and hearty support,
and their unwavering fidelity i'll
ratifying that assurance through the
sixteen months of publication gives
us confidence in the future pros
perity of THE REPUBLICAN. 1t is
firmly established IN one OF the hes,
towns of Iowa, and in such ground
is deemed rugged plant. The tu-
ture course will be true to its repub-
lican faith, thoughtful and consider
ate OF individual rights, and a faithful?
exponent of local and county news.
Mingling our thanks with those O..
the retiring partner for past favors,
and soliciting continuance of your
patronage, we are

EDITOR REPUBLIcAN:-As many Of the
good people of Audubon county asked me
to write brief sketch Of my idea of the SO
called Garden of Eden"-southern Ne.
braska-I will do so and, by your permis.
sien, in the columns of The REPUBLICAN,.
My first impression Of Nebraska was
not favorable, as entered the state in a
small skiif on the waters Of the mudd Y
Missouri, under the light of the stars, about
IL o'clock at night, and had to walk about
three miles to hotel. You can imagine
was as well pleased as the average demo.
crat is with Growers civil service policy.
took the cars at Nebraska City and came
over the b. & NJ, to this place.
The country away from the Bluff Of the
river is beautiful undulating prairie, dot
ted here and there with natural and artific-
ial groves interspersed with many fine
streams of clear, cold water vending their
way TO the Missouri river. Vesta is q
small village on the B. & M. railroad, in
the southeastern part Of Johnson county,
about forty miles south Of Lincoln and sit
uated upon the north bank Of the famous
YANKEE creek, surrounded by a nice roll
ling country which is peculiarly adapted
to both farming and stock raising. The
soil is OF dark alluvial nature, from one
to five feet deep, with clay subsoil. Raw
land can be bought Tor from SO to SIS
per acre; improved land from $25 to $40.
The fuel is principally wood, which can be
had at So to 81 per cord. The inhabitants
of the country are from all parts Of the
globe, and Of an intelligent social class.
There are several |. o. q. T. lodges in
the county, The dear people are being
enlightened and the X. Of l.. are coming
to the front. The leading republicans ad.
nit that the defeat of the Submission Bill
and Of Van Wyck will have great inhu-
ence and hasten the dissolution Of the
party in this state. At this place came
across Prof. T. B Northup, formerly of
Audubon. T. B. is teaching and running
the Vesta department in the Johnson
County Journal, in which he dishes up the
news in a lively way. | will visit Lincoln

Middle AGED an! Y.s.g Mon,

Let me ask you a few questions, to
which you should give your imme-
diate attention if you are suffering
with disease of the Genito- Urinary
Organs, such as seminal losses and
involuntary discharges. What eff.
feet does it produce on your gen.
eral health? Do you feel weak,
debilitated and easily tired? Do
you pursue your business with
the same energy? Does little ex.
ira exercise produce palpitation of
the heart? DO you feel as much
confidence in yourself-is your tenn
per as amiable as ever-or do YOU
feel afraid that every little thing will
upset you' Are your spirits dull or

For the first time in more thar
twenty years my name disappears
from the newspaper business-ac,
lively heretofore, however. Since
THE REPUBLICAN was established
in Audubon | have felt myself ar

very little personally. THE RE-
PUBLICAN has been wisely and con-
servatively managed, and is now a
good piece of property, prosperous

one and all, for their active interest
in THE REPUBLICAN in the past

efforts to increase its usefulness and
prosperity in the future, l am

The astronomer Falb. who last year at
tained some celebrity by his more or less
accurate predictions of earthquake shocks,
has this year come TO grief by his weather
predictions for the months of June and
July. In commenting ON his failure. a
German paper recalls the fate which once
overlook another scientific weather
prophet. Professor Dietmar Of Berlin. who
had predicted that the winter of 1S2s-2 20
would be SO mild that butchers, confec-
TONERS, etc, would be unable to procure
sufficient supply of ice. 1t so happened
that after New Year Of that winter un-
usually cold weather set in. and, Us if by
common agreement, SO many boxes filled
with ice were sent by post to Professor
Dietmar, the freight charges being un-
paid, that the Postmaster General Won
NaSler ad vised all postofiices by circular
to refuse the acceptance of boxes with ice
